Wreaths Across America, the program that puts wreaths on veteran’s graves during the holidays, is in need of more sponsors to pay for wreaths.

“At this time last year we had a lot more wreaths,” said Pat Walker, Wreaths Across America organizer for the Jacksonvillearea. “We were getting 15 to 20 wreaths a day and now we’re getting maybe one or two. It’s dropped considerably.”

Wreaths Across America is a nonprofit organization that began by placing wreaths on the graves of those who sacrificed their lives for the country every December at ArlingtonNationalCemetery. The wreath-laying ceremony has since spread across the nation, and Jacksonvilleorganizers are in need of more wreaths to cover the graves of the veterans located at Coastal Carolina Veteran’s Cemetery.

Walkersaid they need 1,800 wreaths to cover all the veteran graves in the cemetery, and they’re currently about 1,200 wreaths short of that goal.

The wreaths are large evergreen fir garland about 16 inches in diameter, and they’re decorated with a large red velvet bow. Each wreath costs $15 and anyone that would like to sponsor a wreath or any business that would like to sponsor a section of the cemetery can visit wreathsacrossamerica.org for the sponsorship form.

To ensure the wreath is delivered to the Coastal Carolina Veteran’s Cemetery, enter the local ID NCCVCJ under the locations tab. Forms are also available locally by contacting Walkerat 910-545-9333 or walker919@excite.com.

The deadline to place an order for a wreath is Nov. 26.

The wreaths will be laid on the graves of the veterans, as well as on the Beirut, Vietnamand 9/11 memorials in the JacksonvilleMemorialGardens, during a ceremony at the gardens Dec. 15, at 12 p.m.
